How buying a home locally works

Most purchases start with clarifying budget and must-haves, then getting pre-approved or confirming proof of funds. From there, Lauren can help you identify suitable listings, schedule showings, prepare an offer and coordinate inspections, appraisal, title and closing.

Florida purchases typically include an inspection period. Use it well: a general home inspection, a wind-mitigation and four-point inspection for insurance purposes, and a review of any permits for past work are all worth considering.

Selling a residential property

If you are selling, Lauren can walk you through preparation, pricing considerations based on comparable sales, marketing, showings and the steps to closing. Visit the selling page to request a consultation.

Homes with waterfront or acreage

Many residential searches here overlap with lake access or extra land. These properties deserve additional review — shoreline rules, flood zones, wells and septic systems, and zoning for animals or outbuildings. See the waterfront and acreage pages for checklists.
